TOM'S FIRST TOM
SEASON 2 EPISODE 1 THE LAST STRUT
The first episode of The Last Strut has our Final Approach Carver Tom Christie in the hot seat. His first turkey hunt and possibly his first turkey. We head to our good friends Cody Reeves and Kyle Powell in Washington in search of a first. Mario and the guys get a deer show, then a hen show, then the Jake Squad shows up deep. Then the real show starts.

      No issues the past 2 seasons with debri getting in there. I got mine last January and got another one this year and just got a 20 gauge. No issues with debris in the channel.

    I cut my teeth hunting Skagit and Padilla bays up in Washington. Lots of great tips here especially on the risks to dogs. My first lab couldn't be called off a bird, and many times he would disappear chasing a cripple. We were hunting from shore without a boat. My next lab I made sure I could call him off. But in the wind it's hard for them to hear. I would say don't send the dog until you are certain those cripples are finished. Many "dead" birds get very much alive when the dog is twenty yards from it.

    I shot a double band hen mallard this week. I found your video while researching what it actually meant (I'm not a big waterfowl hunter, a friend took me out). The guys I was with were freaking out! How crazy would it be if my duck was one of the mallards you banded in this video??!?! I took it on the shores of Erie about 37 miles southwest of the Jack Miner facility on 12/6/24.

    It's cool to see a video featuring the Columbia River. It definitely has its own challenges and dangers hunting a giant tidal river. There are very real dangers. But the ducks keep us coming back! My boyfriend and I hunt it, often out of our kayaks. Nothing like adding another layer of risk lol. Great footage, and I loved a lot of the details you included. Great video!
